Drug and alcohol treatment programs which cater to the specific and unique needs of seniors and older adults can be more beneficial for this client demographic. Senior and older adult focused treatment can help with the initial stigma that these clients feel they may experience when going to rehab and it provides support from others in the same stage of life who empathize and understand the specific challenges they face. In age neutral programs seniors and older adults can at times be less willing to contribute completely in group activities with younger clients who don't understand their generational and age related specific issues. Drug and Alcohol treatment facilities which offer a more age appropriate forum for seniors and older adults can deliver a platform of mutual understanding, respect, and support to work through the difficulties in recovery.
Rehabilitation staff at drug and alcohol treatment programs for seniors and older adults are prepared to offer their unique expertise with older clients to resolve age-related, generational, and broader substance abuse related issues alike, while also taking into account any unique mental or physical impairments and challenges this subset of client faces while in recovery. Program curriculum for seniors and older adults may be produced with verbal or audio impairments in mind, such as larger type or treatment professionals who are prepared to accommodate the needs of older clients by the means of individual and group counseling sessions.
Seniors and older adults are disproportionately prone to the abuse of prescription drugs and alcohol, and as part of recovery many need medical assistance not just through detoxification but to figure out which prescriptions should be eliminated or continued as part of the treatment process and their transition to a clean and sober lifestyle that will sustain a long and happy life.
